2 - my first thought was it's that we value their lives more, but I think it's actually that we don't value their preferences.

Reading question 27, my brain has never gone faster from being slightly bored to falling into a trippy, recursive hole. Thank you, what a delicious treat that was!

Well that's annoying—apparently there's no way to share a direct link to the responses? I've just removed the link, thanks!
